Killer Bees

While waiting around at the hospital you can't help being bored and eavesdropping at times. There was a family that was quite distraught and looking for a doctor of toxicology. From the conversation it sounded like it was a bite and not drugs or injesting chemicals. I was thinking a spider bite, you know my fear of the Brown Recluse! As I was watching the news last night the story came on. The man was using a backhoe and disturbed a KILLER BEE nest. They think he was stung 2,000 times. Poor man. He was so covered in bees that the couldn't see his skin. Fire department removed the bees with a firehouse. I am sure that didn't feel so goo after all of the bites. MOst all of the bees in Southern Nevada are now the Africanized Killer Bees. Scary thought as these bees will charge at anyone if disturbed. Here is the article. I hope he will be okay.



Notice Seattle that THIS is a street cleaner! They come around and sweep the streets and gutter. What a concept? When I have mentioned street cleaners people usually look at me like I am crazy, see now I have proof.



Progress on the Hemlock Ring. It's going fast. I think I am about half done. These are lousy pictures and the color is not even close to the color of the yarn. It is a midnight blue color-Paris Nights! Hmm...I may have to go back to Paris to double check that!!
